Im not getting the rims till summer of 09, i just need to know if 8.5 would be good all around, for 22?
please i repeat just answere the question, no bad talking no, ricer moments, no hes a n***** crap, none of that please

Met a guy the other day that had 22's on his 06 and he hated them.He said with the thin tires the rims were getting bent everytime he drove it and was going back to 20's.

And please don't put those ugly wheels on a Stang!

great advice

seriously.

If those are the rims you are going for they will look fine to you maybe a little thin find somthing 9 inches wide if you can.


personal opinion: they aren't going to look good man I'm sorry

:barf:

Those wouldn't look that bad if the spokes were longer so that the circular area in the middle of the wheel wasn't so big. And if it didn't have a huge centercap on it covering the lugs

Sure won't look as good as a 20x10 in the rear:

Your tire would probably be like half the width of that haha

I went to Tirerack.com and did a little searching and came up with this:

I think the 22's may be too tall and they might rub when you turn, but I don't know anything about that kind of stuff. My cousin put 23" wheels on his Chevy Blazer this weekend and he actually had to grind the fenders down, and they still rub horribly. He can't even turn a corner at full turn anymore.

I think the width (8.5) will be okay all around and will fit fine, but you may run into some rubbing and grinding problems in the future with the height (22) of that wheel.

Good luck to you either way!

your linky dont work girlie!

even when u ask nicely, some people still dont listen.



anyway thanks for the people who answerd

allso would these tires be good for them, there only 176 each

22inch wheel tires---would they be good

Read the reviews, they are what I would base my decision on...

thanks man your a good help

so they will fit a 22 inch rim, no matter what width the rims are?

yeah that will do. There's only two choices of tires on tirerack for that size so not much of a decision to make on that one haha

yeah the 245's will fit the 8.5 rim your looking at getting

no. if the rim was a lot wider, a 245 width tire would not fit right. but 245 on an 8''' rim looks just right, so a 245 on an 8.5'' rim would make the sidewall lean in some, but not all 245's are the same width, so it does depend on the brand as well for actual tire width.

would it lean in really noticeable?

Not that noticable... i have 245's on my front 9in wide rims and they lean in a little, but ive never had anyone say they look strange, probably because they still have a slight outward budlge. but they would be better off with a 275.. on an 8.5inch tire i think 245 will look fine.

that looks cool.
I really appreciate most of u guys not flaiming

Hey, if you don't give us a reason to we won't. As for tire sizes, I've got 275s on my 8.5s and they look just right. Very little roll or "flubber"....

i never give any reason.but we will leave that at that

I liked the rims that you had on your other sixer better than those personally. Is that for sure the style your getting?

something like this looks better IMO:

If you are going to go with 22 and we all know you are go with thinner spokes they will look better otherwise they end up looking like shiney man hole covers

Drool.


'nuff said.

dont put 22's on it.

bump.

Huh?

I could see that comment being sent off course by some of the people that don't read all the way through the thread. I'm just tired of the bi***fights, probably because I've been a part of the majority of them. But still, it's enough.
